The nebulizer extension is a 2 in. long stainless steel tube that provides a channel for the oxygen from the nebulizer to the interior of the therapy chamber (Figure 18). To mount a new extension to a new nebulizer cap, use a high quality silicone cement. Make sure the finished joint is secure and free of air leaks.

The cotter pin holds the nebulizer to the oxygen therapy door (Figure 18). If you should lose or damage this pin, we recommend that you obtain a replacement locally to save time and expense. The pin is stainless steel, 1/16 in. diameter, and 1.5 in. long. In an emergency, use a bent paper clip as a temporary replacement!
